I haven't gotten on the scale since Monday, I just ordered my food and may run out of non-restricted mid-week since I ordered it later then I should have but I will try not to stress and just try to figure it out. I know I have ready some alternatives that can be bought at stores so I'm sure I will be fine. My jeans are loose and I was told my butt was missing in my tight jeans so I really don't care what the scale say!!!!!

Does anyone know is there a difference between the WF in the salad dressing aisle verse the WF in the cooler where the produce is? The bottle wrappers are different but thats all I noticed.

two NSVs today: I saw some friends who I had not seen in months--who said "how much weight have you lost?!!!!?"

and I went to the value village to get interim pants, and am starting to (tightly) fit into size 6. When I started I was size 16.

A reminder to keep up my work and stay 100% OP.

Happy Saturday!

Slow weekend here!

I've not been here in a week or so . . .been swamped with Girl Scout Cookie Sales Training! Yes, I'm one of those people . . .I have two girls, both in Girl Scouts --- I'm their Troop Leader and Cookie Mom. Then I'm also our Area Cookie Manager and Regional Cookie Manager for our councils new troops/new TCMs! Crazy time of the year -- next 6 months will be cookie filled --- but I love it!


So I had a nice "whoosh" this morning! Last week, I didn't lose a single oz and the scale hadn't been moving all week again this week. Last night we went to the movies and I bet I had to get up to pee 5 times within 2 hours! This morning, got on the scale and was down 7.4 lbs!

Not believing it, I went and checked the batteries in the darn scale and weighed AGAIN!

So nice to be in the 180's!

ONE-DER-LAND! It happened, I saw Onderland on my scale this morning! Fears of sharing my original weight with my DH went out the window as I ran out of my bathroom this morning nekid with Rocky hands in the air shouting 199...199. He was super excited for me. I can't believe it!

Of course WI at my clinic is always a good 3-4lbs heavier but I saw that blessed 1 at the front of my weight. I can be patient. It will come!

Congratulations on reaching onderland AND on sharing your excitement with your husband. Isn't it odd how we won't speak our numbers to anyone we know....as if they couldn't tell we were overweight !! Yet, we are so comfortable sharing the intimate details of our journey with strangers here....of course not strangers any more.....more like comrades!!
